I felt really sorry for Helen because her family knew she was so smart... but Helen had no way to show it. After reading this I started craving cake.

Not that I wouldn't have done the same thing, but it was sort of hard to read.

The stories that I read and watched (I saw that same tv movie!), made Annie Sullivan's job seem so easy and heroic... like she just walked into the Keller house and instantly saved Helen. I don't know many women who would have taken that kind of abuse from a little girl. But imagine being Helen and not being able to see or hear? So scary. Annie Sullivan is a true inspiration for courage and perseverance!
